Radeon GPU Recovery To Hit Linux 2.6.34 Kernel

"David Airlie has just asked Linus to pull in his latest DRM
branch for the Linux 2.6.34 kernel. This branch provides fixes to
the DRM core, Nouveau, and Radeon KMS. The new Radeon DRM code
brings fixes, but it also brings a clean-up to the ASIC tables and
GPU recovery support.

"Jerome Glisse had been working on Radeon GPU recovery support
for some time, which should allow the graphics card / driver to
(ideally) recover itself when it's locked-up."
